Quick guess, is it Rayman Raving Rabbits, it is the only game I know with crazy bunnies.

I have learned that a game about a game makes game physics make sense. Like running full speed into a wall on a funny looking motorcycle does not make you fly off or anything.

Yup but I've switched to X-Plane for many different reasons. A few years ago I was on an A330 and after we landed and parked at the gate, I visited the flightdeck. I asked the captain if I could file a flightplan with the MCDU and he said OK with a confused look. I filed a flightplan for the plane to fly back to where we departed (Hong Kong) and the look on his face was priceless!

A few nuggets from GTA: SA

- You can cause a five-car pile-up infront of a police station and not get arrested
- You can run up mountains, nay, SPRINT up mountains
- You can survive a fall from a 100+ storey building (just as long as you are on a quad bike)
- Jetpacks are real
- You can knock over traffic lights with ease, but try hitting a wooden fence and it stops your car
- You pay 'pleasure girls' (to stick to the PG rating) not before, or after, but during 'the deed'
- You can rob a helicopter from an army base single handed
- You can carry more guns than The Terminator and still manage to swim like an Olympic athlete
- You can commit a crime, go and get your car resprayed and then exit, wearing exactly the same clothes, and fool the police
- You can survive getting hit by a car doing 100+ mph on the freeway/motorway

The most accurate game in the world...
